Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.

 My son, let not them depart from thine eyes: keep sound wisdom and discretion: So shall they be life unto thy soul, and grace to thy neck. Then shalt thou walk in thy way safely, and thy foot shall not stumble. When thou liest down, thou shalt not be afraid: yea, thou shalt lie down, and thy sleep shall be sweet.

For the Lord shall be thy confidence, and shall keep thy foot from being taken. (Proverbs 3:5, 6, 21-24, 26 KJV)

I have read/heard these verses many many times.. but I was particularly struck by them tonight. Especially 5 and 6.  Life seems so scary- so daunting and confusing. Often I am terrified I'm doing everything wrong, scared of future regrets over past failures. Scared of others being disappointed in me.  This promise gives me so much rest. It's really pretty simple. Seek Him, do as he asks and He is going to direct you, protect you and keep you.  I really like that. :)
